Apparatus and method for controlling the driving of a vehicle

Abstract

Disclosed is a method for controlling driving of a vehicle operating an apparatus for controlling driving of a vehicle by executing an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm and / or machine learning algorithm in a 5G environment connected for the Internet of Things. The method for controlling driving of a vehicle may include controlling a host vehicle in an adaptive cruise mode so that a distance between the host vehicle and a preceding vehicle or a following vehicle is maintained within a predetermined distance based on a driving environment information of the host vehicle and a vehicle information of the preceding vehicle or the following vehicle, and controlling the host vehicle in an adaptive avoidance mode when the distance between the host vehicle and the preceding vehicle or the distance between the host vehicle and the following vehicle is not maintained within the predetermined distance.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims benefit of priority to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2019-0101919, filed on Aug. 20, 2019, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND1. Technical Field[0002]The present disclosure relates to an apparatus and method for controlling driving of a vehicle, and more particularly, to an apparatus and method for controlling driving of a vehicle capable of controlling a host vehicle to drive while maintaining an adaptive distance from another vehicle by recognizing a real-time change in space based on approaching vehicles and driving environment information around the host vehicle.2. Description of Related Art[0003]A vehicle is equipped with various vehicle safety systems in consideration of convenience and safety of a driver. In recent years, the number of vehicles using a smart cruise control (SCC) system is increasing. The smart cruise control system is a system that controls a vehic...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This patent aims to improve the safety and reliability of a device that controls driving by recognizing changes in space in real-time. This allows for an adaptive driving control that ensures the driver's safety. Additionally, the device is designed to feel like a personalized product and provide the convenience of a customized device.

Problems solved by technology

However, the related art 1 and the related art 2 cannot perform adaptive cruise control by application of driving patterns of the preceding vehicle and the following vehicle while the preceding vehicle and the following vehicle are driving in close proximity to each other, and therefore have a problem in that it is difficult to adaptively control the driving of the vehicle in response to the real-time change in space.
